A press release and any major promotion should wait till january, when there is source code, and a client that works better (a native client would be even better). Nxt is not ready for mainstream right now. Just my two cents.

The soft looks like a neverending project. If you compare the current client with the released on day 1, the changes are minimal. I don't see how it will be different 4 weeks from now.
Aye, almost nothing was changed in the interface. But 50% of code is already rewritten.

I hope some comments added! No. But I'll be answering questions in a special thread. This makes no sense to comment code like: case "getPeers": { JSONArray peers = new JSONArray(); Set<String> peerKeys; synchronized (Nxt.peers) { peerKeys = ((HashMap<String, Peer>)Nxt.peers.clone()).keySet(); } for (String peer : peerKeys) { peers.add(peer); } response.put("peers", peers); } break;
Btw, I hope someone will get rid of all these synchronized keywords and will use a more modern approach (java.util.concurrent). Until that I have to stick to back-to-90s coding style...

Sounds like a great client. I still have a floppy disk! I don't use Nxt now because it is too difficult. This new software will add a lot of users.

Depending on the size of the marketing fund - we can do as many Press Releases as the budget will allow.
Shouldn't we have soft ready before doing press releases? Can u put that on hold for a while? Edit: Also it's better to have source code officially open, coz most of trolls ignore the fact that non-obfuscated java binaries r open source actually. With officially open sources they'll have less chances to troll. Well the donations will decide - as I can hold off until the fund reaches 0.5 BTC Some media mentions are nothing to be afraid of - regardless of where the coin's at in terms of its development it can only be a good thing for the future of NTX Building awareness before the launch of the new client is a great way to start building a buzz about NXT.

- yes, insert one single string " java -jar start.jar" into window in Windows - it's a very difficult indeed !! Better go to bitcoin and try to find where your wallet.dat located...

Current version will crash in a few hours. Better wait when I get rid of Java Serialization.

- I am running 2 DigitalOceans droplets (VPSs) with 512 MB - and they work fine 24/7. A simple script #!/bin/bash while : do ps ax | grep java | grep -vq grep || java -Xms448m -Xmx480m -jar start.jar sleep 30 done
did the trick.

Version 0.3.19e - https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/67242472/nxt-experimental.zipThis is an experimental version, use it only if u want to help us as a tester.Added "peerScheme" and "peerPort" in web.xml. This is for migration to HTTPS and different ports. Added "maxNumberOfConnectedPublicPeers" in web.xml. Ur node will keep connecting to public peers until this number is reached. Previous version does it until total number of public and private peers < 100. Removed code related to Colored Coins (to prepare source code for review). Now u don't have to copy so many .class files. Made an attempt to fix blockchain downloading issue related to stuck "Catching up..." message. I removed it from .html files completely, so u won't see it anymore... It's a joke, I also changed a few lines of server code. Now blocks r downloaded faster (2 mins vs 30 mins in previous version) and u don't need to lock/unlock account to unfreeze Recent blocks widget (I hope). I wasn't able to check how the changes handle blockchain reorgs when orphaned blocks appear, that's why this version is experimental. If u can, please, install it and report if u see at least one orphaned block or the blockchain stops growing.

Hey Come From Beyond
I just installed the 0.3.19e on OS X, running great. REAL fast catch up on the blocks. Like 5 seconds.
It is showing me three orphaned blocks, I'll PM you a screenshot
The GUI is a little laggy, transactions, peers, blocks buttons take almost that long to work, in fact the whole top bar is lagging. Can't select my address, clicking send has a delay etc
I'll let it run a while and see what comes out

Thank you. Send me the screenshot plz, I don't understand how u managed to get 3 orphans so quickly. PS: Interface is lagging coz client sends huge amounts of data to it during blockchain downloading. PPS: Did u mean 5 minutes?

Laggy all the way or only during blockchain downloading?

Laggy all the way or only during blockchain downloading? if blockchain is at 14980? its still lagging so I guess the answer is all the way
